Nope, same as above.

Home -8 but in Tucson.

Back in that day Mindlands brackets were sometimes harder than NCAA D1 tournament. Believe he won 3 tournaments against D1, wrestlers. Vegas was also a tough tournament then. Pretty sure he beat all the top guys in the NCAA bracket except Hahn. Hahn was at Vegas. Willson beat the guy at Midlands that beat Hahn at Vegas. The only thing one might argue is that he had a higher pin percentage outside of D1. But I bet the committee also looked at his pins against D1 for comparison, this was back when the followed the criteria and spirit of Hodge. The writeup on that year makes sense, not sure we'd say the same on this last "half hodge" year.

Didn't he win Midlands?

Without a doubt.

Merry Christmas to them rodents.

Lights on Christmas tree roots.

All rodents should be underground.

Them words did him in.

Can now call you grampart?

Burgers and fries since 1986.

Can you give us a @flyingcement type of guarantee on those?

nah ... he'd probably set it on fire and burn it down.

Brooks was pinned or no?

Don't know if true but heard Bob is offering a warm place to hang out and animal crackers over at the Zoo.

Sure it would have, Iowa St would've wrestled 285 and won the dual meet 18-16.

Didnt make it, please pull the plug!

when he gets excited he screams so loud you can't tell he mispronounced names and moves ... this a good thing, no?

I'd love to bet on that but ...

Stupid Things I was going to say a pastry with morning coffee but maybe that's not "wrestling related."

Already in the portal.

who knows ... maybe nobody told you

Where do you see that on the criteria, was Hodge a 4x? Thought Hodge was an individual season award, what's Lee's record?

But Carl appreciates a good pin or tech.
